Chemistry between Promes and Ziyech
If you take a look at the two football players, you see a strong chemistry, what produces a high productivity. Many assists and goals made by the two of them. This is also often at the behest of the other. Ziyech assisted the last five goals of Promes. Usually on their characteristic way Ziyech assisted Promes by playing the ball behind the defense. Here Promes tipped the ball inside. Even outside the field the chemistry between the players is more than good. This seems to be paying off in the field, where the pleasure of both ‘street footballers’ radiates.
Idols for the street
